How do you trash Obama's record? By mentioning it. It's trash already.

In a recent conference call, David Axelrod complained, saying Romney was trashing Obama's record. Um, all you'd have to do is mention his record... and that would be trashing it automatically. What Axelrod is used to doing is un-trashing it on a daily basis. That's why we've "added jobs 48 weeks in a row." Not enough to break even, but we added some. Saved/created some ;) That's why the recession of 2007 has grown larger every time Obama's dismal record needs a boost. Worst since the Great Depression. Unemployment would've been 15%. No man could've done better.

In Libya, our lack of security was, um... caused by a Youtube video. Yeah, that'll fly. Ooo, they didn't buy that? We have to wait until the investigation is complete before we can say any more... estimated to be done after the election.

It's kinda like a game of Curling. Obama is the stone slipping down the ice completely out of control, and along come Axelrod and Cutter furiously sweeping the ice with brooms trying to steer him, speed him up, slow him down, make him come close to what they feel is their target, i.e. whatever phrases poll well in focus groups.

Speak of his record, please. It is trash, and needs to be thrown out.

Romney/Ryan vs Itchy/Scratchy?

Is it Romney/Ryan vs Itchy/Scratchy? Obama supporters take to keying cars with Romney/Ryan stickers. @marklevin http://ow.ly/ejh4J

Fact Checkers - those Great Purveyors of Truth

Beverly says: "I would love to see a bar under the candidates with the fact checkers score with each statement made by the candidates. Something like"liar, liar, pants on fire." Or "he might could do that."

It's bogus. The only difference with fact checkers is that they build themselves up as the great purveyors of truth, but like any news organization, they will have their bias as well. It's a way for liberals to pretend they have credibility, since the concept started as a hit job methodology. Of course we'll call every Republican a liar if it wins us more votes, just look at our history. But what if it wasn't us but a "fact checking organization" doing it? Now we sound credible.

I'd rather trust a person's track record. Every opponent Obama/Axelrod have faced has fallen under the same hit job approach. Desperate to pry open sealed divorce records, they use any means necessary... media hysteria is a good one, whatever it takes. Romney, being monogamous, requires a different approach. Tax records - we demand to see them. What is he hiding? Bain capital? How uncaring! How many times can we as Americans allow this same formulaic nonsense to pull the wool over our eyes? It's like Weekend at Bernie's Part 7, or rather The Godfather part VIII.

Romney has integrity, success, and a long track record of caring for people, improving their lives, raising a family, and public service. Those are the facts I care about.

It’s almost like a serial killer’s signature. Unsealed personal records have been released to the press. Obama must be running for office!

So you can see what a pickle the Obama campaign is in having to run against a Dudley Do-Right, non-drinking, non-smoking, God-fearing, happily married Mormon.

Unashamed and Unaware

Was it fair for the Debate Commission to not allow Obama to use his teleprompter for the debate? The number one answer: Otherwise how is he going to memorize an entire hour and a half debate? I'd be so embarrassed to be a Democrat, but each new day comes, and many people still proceed on as a Dem, unashamed or perhaps unaware of how foolish they appear. The President can say anything to these supporters and they will parrot it like it bears resemblance to factual or truthful information. We're on the right track. We're growing jobs. We're moving forward. For example Harry Reid starts a flash mob about Romney's tax returns, and how many fools rushed in on that? Here doggy, chase the ball. Most rational people knew immediately it was false, because Reid is not credible. But Democrats, no, they're in! Once the lie is revealed, it doesn't matter. They're onto Big Bird now, who is worth more than Romney himself, but no matter, he needs his millions from taxpayers. Anyway, the esteemed Democrat party:

Now We're Cooking With Butter... does that count as a part time job?

"The 114,000 jobs created would have been a good number... but for 1962, not 2012. The U.S. economy needs 2-3 times that number every month to close the jobs gap."

"Digging beneath the veneer, the quality of these so-called Household jobs is called into question, seeing as part-time work for 'economic reasons' dominated with a 582K run-up in September. And upon closer inspection of the actual amount of slack in the labor market, the more inclusive U6 unemployment rate that does a much better job at capturing underemployment remain stubbornly stuck at 14.7%." 

Soo-Do Nim asks: could the recent change in what qualifies as "federal work activity" be linked to the sudden addition last month of 500k part time "home jobs"?

In 2005, the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office reported that several states listed as part of their definition of a “federal work activity” under TANF the following:

1. Bed rest

2. Personal care activities

3. Massage

4. Exercise

5. Journaling

6. Motivational reading

7. Smoking cessation

8. Weight loss promotion

9. Participating in parent teacher meetings

10. Helping a friend or relative with household tasks and errands. 

I wonder if standing in a Union protest rally or pro-Obama rally for $10 an hour also qualifies as... a new part time job too? Or clicking thru on a "work from home" link? Practicing bass guitar?

If Santa were Obama/Axelrod's Political Opponent

based on Obama's style (via Axelrod, Jarret) of seeking to personally destroy his opponents http://www.humanevents.com/2011/11/09/david-axelrods-pattern-of-sexual-misbehavior/
 And now without further ado: if Santa were Obama/Axelrod's political opponent by Soo-Do Nim

1. What's in Santa's "closet"? The word is out that Santa spends a great deal of time stashing more than just Johnny's gifts in that little bag of his. Santa's in the unique position to transfer goodies to drug dealers across borders WITHOUT THE USUAL BORDER SECURITY CHECKS! 
2. Santa Claus, or as he is also known "Saint" Nicholas, disappears off the grid for months at a time, reportedly stashing money in various Dutch bank accounts. But due to his secrecy, we're not even certain about where he goes, and he has been reportedly seen in some of the seediest neighborhoods in Chicago and L.A. 
3. Charity begins in Santa's home? - Where is the money? Thousands of volunteers raised money to "help" Santa reach more homes and chimneys, but much of this money has somehow vanished... it seems that plenty of the money has found its way into Santa's portly figure, as he lavishly feeds himself during his now infamous North pole parties. 
4. Santa's highschool girlfriend speaks out  - Poet Katherine Lee Bates wrote extensively about Mrs. Claus, but her fascination with the jolly red giant goes beyond poetic to perverse. Many underage girls have been a little more than "happy" after receiving gifts and favors from Santa. His behavior has raised more than a few eyebrows. But rumour has it that Bates was more than just Santa's poet, a secret hidden from Mrs. Claus until this year, when this important story broke open on the Puff Post. 
5. Reindeer abuse? Santa's sleigh gets fuller and fuller, while his reindeer continue to look skinnier and more sickly. Animal safety experts contend that the great distances his reindeer are literally forced to travel every December are tantamount to animal torture! How can we trust a man who cannot even take care of his own animals? 
6. Santa now putting his elves back in chains!! While Santa gorges himself on wine and cakes, his elves work tirelessly to build up Santa's ever-expanding wealth. He commands them around like his little peons, denying their human rights to vacation and health care. No, no. It's always about Santa. Well in this election, Santa needs to take a quick trip right back to the North Pole!

I Will Not Read, I Will Not Listen, I Promise

ABC News to its writers: Folks, this election is about ignoring all of Romney's successes, kindness and generosity, and ignoring all of Obama's failures, selfishness and narcissism. Let's get 8 more stories done about "the 47%" this week, and not Bain anymore since that backfired. I'm tired of hearing about all of the jobs Romney actually saved AND created. Focus on important words such as outsourced. If you can do a story combining the words 47% and outsourced, there will be a bonus for you. Now let's go! Oh, and don't forget to pre-write your templates of "Romney's embarrassing gaffes at the debate," so once it's over you can just fill in the blanks.

Okay, folks, before you go, do repeat the oath after me:

I do solemnly swear to focus only on the audio snippets of Romney that government-approved media (that includes us!), and our party dictate, such as 47%, because whatever he meant by that, I am quite sure that more than 47% would never vote for him, so he was inaccurate. And I will waste no energy thinking about how Romney has been successful rebuilding businesses and is a creative entrepreneur and has been generous in a freakish way (it's just not right to earn and give away so much money). Yeah sure, he gave away literally millions of dollars every year for the last 20 years (just gave it away to charity!) but no matter. He did mention 47% in a meeting with "donors." For all we know they're also busy secretly giving away money to charity too! Millions of dollars given away to who knows what charity? Why the secrecy?

I also do solemnly swear not to focus on the different ways Obama's pursuits seem to have failed at every step. The economy continues to fail under him. He didn't show up to vote much while in the Senate even during what he has labeled the greatest economic crisis since the Great Depression. He didn't show up for intelligence briefings while the Middle East was(is) in flames. I am Democrat, hear me roar. I can blank out large portions of factual information and focus in, only on what is set before me. I can have Ann Coulter on my show as a guest, and not read even portions of her book Mugged, knowing that since I am black and she is not, the case is closed. Say no more! I will not watch any news program that may show Obama in a negative light. Fox news has purportedly played speeches by Obama saying one thing in 2012, and on the same show speeches of Obama saying the exact opposite during the 2007 campaign! This is sneaky, backhanded, and should not be allowed. I do solemnly swear to not listen to Rush Limbaugh, Newt Gingrich, Mike Huckabee, Karl Rove <* ewww snarl *>, and especially not any words coming out of Dick Cheney <* double snarl *>. And I agree not to read books such as Ameritopia, Demonic, Liberal Fascism, The Forgotten Man, and especially not Mugged. I will not read them, Sam I Am.

Hybrid Tankless from Village seems cool

I recently stumbled across a compact hybrid tankless water heater system over at Village Plumbing in Houston. Seemed unique because it's 98%+ efficient, has a nice small footprint, and works equally well in new homes and with older plumbing.

You should look at this 98% efficient tankless system I think!

Creative Writing Under Obama

It has been a great season for creative writers in the political realm. Today's US NEWS Headline:
Why a Rising Unemployment Rate is Good News is a good example of how Democrats have been tap dancing for over a year now explaining to us why spending is necessary. Why unemployment would've been worse, and how it's Bush's fault anyway. Imagine where we'd be without Barack. In the story In Search of an Adjective we visited a little bit of how creative these writers can get, as they seek to label, somehow, the enormity of electing a white person into the Presidency. Or, wait a minute. Is he black? Who decides that? Is there some magic skin ratio formula used to decide who gets the affirmative action goodies? (h/t Steve Sailer)

But it has been a season for creative liberal writers, and for thinking on your feet among liberal guests on cable. The best strategy seems to be to mention that a Republican seemed to agree, therefore... "Well, Lindsey Graham yada yada, therefore how can you say that?"

Is it fair to say that these creative writing jobs are saved jobs? Although isn't the term du jour preserved? Good to know that the Daily Show wrote some stand up material for BHO's performance at the Correspondent's dinner, but one has to wonder if they're not also writing his speeches, because they are a joke! Obama's speeches as of late sound much more J. Stewartesque than they do presidential. Bash the Republicans, Fox, Palin, Wall Street, BP, coal miners, banks... pretty much anyone that lives in the world of factual information. And how about Gibbs misquoting FOX repeatedly re: the oil spill? "They said we did it on purpose. Yes they did. Yes they did." No, but they may have said you put it in your ignore pile until it was too late. They may have said that, and when I say they, I mean the former FEMA Director,  Michael Brown. Any story on that will inevitably digress over to Katrina bashing. Another creative strategy of avoidance.

By the way, I started writing this story BEFORE Rush Limbaugh brought it up, and before I realized Obama was actually using these 9.9% unemployment figures to celebrate. But it's good to know I was in the right zone. Let we wrap by saying how disappointed I'd be if the unemployment rate had dipped to 6%, or any similar Bush-era number. How can you build an historic crisis agenda around numbers like that? No, 9.9% is a really good number, and heightens my creative juices.

Ann Coulter Captioned by CNN

funny - I posted an old story today I wrote under the name Typical White Person called Extreme Advertising that was about an Ann Coulter controversy that originated in 2007. And looking over the CNN story that covered the whole thing, I saw that they described Coulter like this:

Conservative commentator Ann Coulter has been widely criticized for calling presidential candidate John Edwards a 'faggot.'

 That's how they described her. Not bestselling author, not popular commentator, mind you. CNN that bastion of fairness.  That story was from 2007, and I don't know about you, but I'd say that since then Edwards has been called a lot worse. I'd have to say that Coulter was some kind of oracle to have that kind of insight into Edwards future personality, but at the time "she was widely criticized." FLASHFORWARD 2010 he also lied about the child. Now this guy was a Democrat on the ticket for Vice President of the United States. But all you hear about is PALIN, PALIN, PALIN in a negative fashion of course. Stories such as this where CNN leaves a comment on their respectable journal calling Palin an ignorant twit. No way to edit those pesky comments I guess.

At least Edwards earned it.

Cool thing was AnnCoulter.com linked to my Extreme Advertising article from her front page and left it there for over a month. Thanks Ann, popular commentator and bestselling author. I dug getting the additional traffic. American Sentinel was shut down because some guy living on a yacht in DC claimed ownership of the name. But what was once TWP is now Soo Do-nim. Although I'm still a *typical white person.

Speaking of which here are a couple of campaign slogans I'm willing to share with the Democrat Party:

Keep Racism Alive! 

Join the Democrat party, where we still care (VERY much) 

about the color of your skin.

or

Join the Democrat Party, where you're not an American, 

you're a hyphenated-American.

That's on the house, no extra charge.

*This was my TWP bio back then:

My journal's name TWP was inspired by Barack Obama's grandmother whom he referred to as a typical white person during his attempt to explain why he'd portrayed her as a racist during a speech designed to explain his 20-year relationship with Rev. Wright. During his campaign he needed to prove he was more 'down with black folk' than Hillary Clinton, whose phony gospel accent wasn't playing well to audiences in Selma. Seems like it worked as Obama carried 96% of the black vote in November. How many half-blacks voted for him is TBD.

TWP in Coulter, Coulter, Verizon, double standard, hypocrisy, hypocrisy

Back in 2007 upstanding companies (barf) such as Verizon, Sallie Mae and Georgia-based NetBank were taking their marching orders from "mainstream" political Web site the Daily Kos, as they retracted in horror upon discovering that some of their ads had appeared on an "extreme political Web site," AnnCoulter.com. May it never be!

Could there be a more hypocritical stance for a company to take?

A spokesperson for NetBank said Coulter's page "is not the kind of site we want to be on." To know that, he/she/trans would have to have read it, and you know that didn't happen. Since NetBank was the 1st bank to fail, it's good to know that their ads don't appear ANYwhere these days, including AnnCoulter.com.

"Per our policy, the networked Web site ad purchases are supposed to be stripped of certain kinds of Web sites," said a Verizon spokesperson. "This one could be considered an extreme political Web site, should be off the list, and now it is off the list." Good for you, Verizon! It would be a shame to have your alleged "deceptive and misleading" ads that got you sued by the state of New Jersey run on a Web site so extreme as Ann Coulter's.

Update on Tuesday, April 7, 2009 at 1:54AM by TWP

When I first wrote this I missed that the source article for this was posted on CNN in 2007. A friend shared the story with me just yesterday and I thought it was a current news item and jumped on the story and posted this. Then I rewrote it once I realized it was pre-Socialism. Now it makes sense why NetBank was out there spouting off. In 2007 they actually thought they had some swagga. Perhaps they didn't give enough to Obama, and now they're history.

Regardless, it's still funny to me.

The Right Wing Force Field

I keep waiting for someone to say this but I haven't heard it yet, so... you heard it here first: the left is trying to brand tea parties as racists and vitriolic etc. not to hurt their feelings... tea party folks all know they're not racists and that it's bunk. But it's more to scare potential Democrats, Independents, and yes black people, away from joining up, or even listening.

Same tactics used to scare people away from actually hearing the message of Rush, or Fox News, or Glenn, et al. Very important to scare people away from these messages of sanity. Because if your trusted CNN tells you to avoid El Rushbo and FOX, then you'll stay far away. Hey, Democrats: you're being played. Funny how the "open minded ones" become completely shut down at the mention of a right wing movement of which they've only seen clips from an MSNBC type angle. Just try mentioning El Rushbo or Mark Levin or Glenn Beck to a devoted Democrat to witness the phenomenon.

Obama deemed More Obnoxious than an Exhaust Fan

Which is less obnoxious? The exhaust fan above my stove, or a speech by Barack Obama?

Well, I'd say the exhaust fan, because it doesn't lie, has some useful function, and the best part is, can be turned off.
